You can go to the traffic department and get a temporary licence for 150 riyals.

I have one without RP, but you need to apply for RP and get your company to fill out the forms.

I think it lasts for 3 months.

Yes u can have d.license just u need to go to Al Maroor ( traffic Department) and after they have done your eye test in 5 mints, they will handover your new Qatari DL in replacement to UAE DL. and anyhow u can use ur UAE license up to one month in Qatar as legal.
